The Upcoming of Fat Tuesday

Our country is getting hyped up for the upcoming of Fat Tuesday. Fat Tuesday is the ending of celebrations for Mardi gras in towns such as New Orleans. Fat Tuesday is religiously brought up from catholic and French believers. But since Fat Tuesday calls on for the biggest party ever it brings out every type of person, from different backgrounds, to different beliefs to come together and enjoy all the fun. February 21,2012 is the day Fat Tuesday will come this year. With the partying and fun starting way before the day is even thought of the carnival and parade season come along as well. But this is brought up from Mardi gras where these crazy fun parties began, and become a never-ending celebration. During Mardi gras, which is French for Fat Tuesday many green gold and purple beads are thrown, and pounds of foods are eaten. With New Orleans at the top for hosting the best Mardi gras, it is celebrated all over the world.

Well I would like to join the fun and celebrate Mardi gras and Fat Tuesday too. It sounds like a lot of fun and I believe I would enjoy the festivities a lot. I also would like to learn more on the history of the Mardi gras and its celebration. I also was glad to learn that there were seasons for Carnival and Parades, and that was very surprising to learn. I wonder if they celebrate Mardi gras in Philly. I would like to know some info on that as well. Hurray for Mardi gras!
